It seems I only ever come on this forum to place blatant plugs.
So here goes...
I don't know how useful this is to fellrunners, but we've launched our online route planning system with access to all OS 1:25,000 and 1:50,000 maps for an annual subscription.
The bad news is, as I said, you have to pay for it (though it is a bargain!)
It was designed with walkers mainly in mind, but it could be of use planning long-distance challenges or training routes. The timing system can by modified to suit any running or walking speed over different terrain.
It can be accessed via our main www.grough.co.uk website.
I'm currently putting all the Fellsman checkpoints on it and may put a suggested route for the event on too. Have you any other suggestions? I know there are different variations for, say, the BG, but a basic route might be possible and you can copy this and adopt it.
I'd be interested to hear your views.
Thanks again for indulging me. I'll probably be the most frozen one at the Fellsman Yarnbury checkpoint in May if you make it that far.
